Guest Rusty! Posted May 27, 2011 Report Posted May 27, 2011 (edited) Quick update of both internal and external SD supporting recoveries to v5.0.2.7-R2 Both .img files in one package: http://www.mediafire.com/file/ys6ps2s9rpbm9pc/cwm-5.0.2.7-R2.zip MD5#: d2264c6631db5c5c4da8dabf6ff2fa01 By request a quick explanation of the difference between the two recoveries: Usually, your recovery image will look on the external SD card for ROMs to flash, and backups to restore, and the external version here is no different. For the most part that is fine and dandy (unless you don't have an SD card I guess), however the stock O2X mounts it's internal SD card as /sdcard, which confuses ROM Manager a fair bit. The internal version of the recovery mounts the internal storage as /sdcard as well, so ROM Manager can find backups it's made etc. NOTE: Backups made with v5 are not compatible with earlier versions. Source Changelog (Built 11/11/11): https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_bootable_recovery/commits/gingerbread/ Changes by Me None this time, as I doubt anyone uses SD-EXT or cares about the splash Older versions: 5.0.2.75.0.2.65.0.2.34.0.1.54.0.1.4 R3The rest: http://www.mediafire.com/?gtj2fms2edid5 All credits to Koush for a hell of a lot of hard work.

Guest maxisma Posted May 27, 2011 Report Posted May 27, 2011 This isn't a good idea. If you for some reason don't get into Android anymore, and encounter problems with ADB in recovery mode, there is no way to access the internal SD anymore in order to flash an update.zip.
Guest Rusty! Posted May 27, 2011 Report Posted May 27, 2011 I tried getting internal on /sdcard and external on /sdcard/_ExternalSD, it seems to mount but wont browse it. If things go badly tits up, you would need to NVFLash the external SD CWM I guess.
Guest Rusty! Posted June 6, 2011 Report Posted June 6, 2011 (edited) Now internal & external builds, upped to version 3.2.0.1 Edited June 6, 2011 by Rusty!
Guest cheloman Posted June 14, 2011 Report Posted June 14, 2011 Now internal & external builds, upped to version 3.2.0.1 Im a bit confusing right now. After install (ext version), I used the Paul recovery app for reset in recovery mode. But, when I run the application, seems that it start to updating the recovery again and it keep in a loop try for reset. So, I turn off the phone (in the right way), and started with power - vol down. Now, the phone shows me: S/W Upgrade Please, wait while upgrading It has pass about 7 minutes... and nothing. There is not status bar or anything... this is normal??? What is S/W Upgrade? Im using FR18 modacos rom. Thanks

I dont know what happened really :S Thanks
Guest Rusty! Posted June 15, 2011 Report Posted June 15, 2011 You get to S/W Update by holding vol- without power, still looks like you're sorted now ;)
Guest Rusty! Posted June 30, 2011 Report Posted June 30, 2011 Something I've realised today: The internal version actually can browse the external SD as well! You have to mount it manually from ADB though, the built in mount function seems to fail (without error) for some reason. adb shell mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 /sdcard/_ExternalSD
Guest Tasse01 Posted July 14, 2011 Report Posted July 14, 2011 Hi @all, i noticed that the function ClockworkMod->Advanced->Reboot Recovery does not work! Can anyone confirm this ? Many thanks for the effort until now, Rusty !
Guest Sunshine! Posted July 27, 2011 Report Posted July 27, 2011 it keeps saying waiting for device if iwant 2 install it.... and ye usb debuggin is on.
Guest Rusty! Posted July 27, 2011 Report Posted July 27, 2011 Does 'adb devices' pick up your phone OK?
Guest Sunshine! Posted July 27, 2011 Report Posted July 27, 2011 Does 'adb devices' pick up your phone OK? how can i check that
Guest Sunshine! Posted July 28, 2011 Report Posted July 28, 2011 it say device not found it's on usb debugging... and if i do mass storage it see's the SD card on PC..
Guest Rusty! Posted July 29, 2011 Report Posted July 29, 2011 Must be a driver thing then, ADB needs to recognise the phone before it can work. Try the ones from the radio update sticky thread.
Guest Sunshine! Posted July 29, 2011 Report Posted July 29, 2011 where's the radio topic ? i can't find it!
Guest Rusty! Posted July 29, 2011 Report Posted July 29, 2011 http://loadbalancing.modaco.com/download.php?url=mf/?0373xkigrckka7b If you get properly stuck then you could always copy the .img file to the SD card and use dd to flash it via a terminal.
Guest Rusty! Posted July 31, 2011 Report Posted July 31, 2011 A command: dd if=/pathto/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p7
Guest morckx Posted August 2, 2011 Report Posted August 2, 2011 In 4.0.1.4 R2 (ext), I have to mount my external SD card manually with adb as the file system is directly on /dev/block/mmcblk1 In Paul's 4.0.0.5 and previous versions this was not not necessary. Maybe because of this line in /etc/recovery.fstab : /sdcard vfat /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 /dev/block/mmcblk1 Could you fix that? Or should this better go directly to CWM? Thanks, M.
Guest Rusty! Posted August 2, 2011 Report Posted August 2, 2011 That isnt added by me, it's part of the source. It means that if the external SD is missing/not dectected, it will use internal instead. I could (of course) remove it, but a) it makes sense to have it and B) if it's not there you'll just get a can't find SD card error instead. Actually, I built a one off with out it for someone now I think about it, feel free to test: http://www.mediafire.com/?s6a38hh3hs8d3ue
